  2. Herbert screw - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herbert_screw

    [1] [2] It is one of the earliest designs of headless compression screws which are used to achieve interfragmentary compression through its differential pitch between the threads at each end of the screw (distance between adjacent threads of screw). It is used in scaphoid, capitellum, radial head and in osteochondral fractures. Other uses ...

    Learning Commons inside the library of Tec de Monterrey, Mexico City. Learning commons, also known as scholars' commons, information commons or digital commons, are learning spaces, [1] [2] similar to libraries and classrooms that share space for information technology, remote or online education, tutoring, [3] [4] collaboration, content creation, meetings, socialization, playing games and ...

  4. Group 4 compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_4_compression

    CCITT Group 4 compression, also referred to as G4 or Modified Modified READ (MMR), is a lossless method of image compression used in Group 4 fax machines defined in the ITU-T T.6 fax standard. It is only used for bitonal (black-and-white) images.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LZ77_and_LZ78

    They are also known as Lempel-Ziv 1 (LZ1) and Lempel-Ziv 2 (LZ2) respectively. [3] These two algorithms form the basis for many variations including LZW , LZSS , LZMA and others. Besides their academic influence, these algorithms formed the basis of several ubiquitous compression schemes, including GIF and the DEFLATE algorithm used in PNG and ...

    The first, called Combined Combustion System or CCS, is based on the VW Group 2.0-litre diesel engine, but uses homogeneous intake charge. It requires synthetic fuel to achieve maximum benefit. The second is called Gasoline Compression Ignition or GCI; it uses HCCI when cruising and spark ignition when accelerating.

  9. Information bottleneck method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Information_bottleneck_method

    The information bottleneck method is a technique in information theory introduced by Naftali Tishby, Fernando C. Pereira, and William Bialek. [1] It is designed for finding the best tradeoff between accuracy and complexity (compression) when summarizing (e.g. clustering) a random variable X, given a joint probability distribution p(X,Y) between X and an observed relevant variable Y - and self ...
